Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu took Lin Yuanmiao away from Wuxing Mountain and returned to the Imperial Capital. There were no twists and turns along the way, and the dust had settled.
After returning to the Jade Palace in Xuan Shang Beifang, Zhang Yuelu separated from Qi Xuansu - she benefited a lot from this trip to Five Elements Mountain, especially after Ziguang Zhenjun helped her completely refine the thunder talisman, which made her
His level of cultivation has been rising again and again, and now there is only a thin line between him and the immeasurable stage. There are no obstacles to speak of, so Zhang Yuelu needs to stabilize his greatly increased level of cultivation first.
The next step is very simple. She only needs to practice step by step, which can take as long as three months or as short as more than a month, and she can successfully reach the immeasurable stage. In this way, Zhang Yuelu is the first person among the three talents of the Taoist sect to reach the immeasurable stage.
He is probably also the youngest Infinite Stage Heavenly Being in the entire Tao Sect.
At this point, Qi Xuansu will never be able to surpass Zhang Yuelu. Even if Qi Xuansu gets another piece of "Xuan Jade" today and reaches the immeasurable stage on the spot, it will still be incomparable. Who makes him one year older than Zhang Yuelu?
As for Qi Xuansu himself, he got some benefits after being descended by the Purple Light True Monarch once. First of all, he gained more than a thousand moments of divine power for nothing. In addition, he already had more than 900 moments of divine power, which is more than 2,000 moments of divine power. For
For a heavenly being in the carefree stage, it is really a big sum, enough for him to squander for a while. This is the last remaining remnant of True Lord Ziguang. To her, it is quite useless, tasteless to eat, and a pity to throw away.
She simply didn't want it, and it can be seen from this that how much divine power is consumed by a divine descent.
Secondly, in addition to the Taiyin Dharma Appearance, Qi Xuansu has another Dharma Appearance choice, which is the Dharma Appearance of the Purple Light True Monarch. At first glance, it seems that it is too easy to get the Dharma Appearance, but if you think about it carefully, it is not easy at all. It can be obtained by a
Not everyone can have the experience of being possessed by an immortal. Not even Qi Xuansu himself can recreate it. In addition to the condition of being banished to an immortal the day after tomorrow, he also needs to have divine power of more than 10,000 kilometres, as well as that crucial opportunity. Not only
This is true of True Lord Ziguang. When True Lord Si Ming came, there were similar things.
In addition, it was True Lord Ziguang who repaired all his injuries. Whether Qin Quanxiao cut off his legs or amputated his spine, there were no hidden dangers. The same was true for Zhang Yuelu, which saved the two of them a lot.
Time. Without the help of True Lord Ziguang, the two of them would have to recover from their injuries for a while even if their lives were not in danger.
However, Qi Xuansu's realm cultivation has not improved much and is still the same. As for his own cultivation speed, it is absolutely incomparable with Zhang Yuelu. Even if Qi Xuansu makes up for some of his lack of qualifications through practicing the realm of transformation, there is still a huge gap.
.After all, they are also banished immortals, and there are high and low levels. The practice of transformation only allows Sanren to touch the lowest threshold, and Zhang Yuelu is obviously much higher than the lowest threshold. Her cultivation progress in the past was slow.
It's because she's too distracted and has to spend a lot of time doing things, not because she's not qualified enough.
In addition, there are also reasons for inheriting the skills.
First of all, Qi Xuansu is a Sanren and Zhang Yuelu is a banished immortal. There is an essential difference. Although Qi Xuansu can be regarded as a banished immortal, he lacks the crucial inheritance of Qi Refiners and cannot bring Xiaowu Qi to the Yuan Dynasty. Li Changge collected and inherited Xiaowu Qi.
To Chaoyuan, you can use the "Ying Jie False Body". Qi Xuansu does not have the Small Five Qi to Chaoyuan, so he can only use the "Cicada Slough Technique". The former is the same as the real body, and can even hide from the "Tian Shu", while the latter is just a
Empty shells can easily be seen through by others. This is a gap in inheritance.
Secondly, Qi Xuansu only has a method of induction and integration inherited from Sanren, while Zhang Yuelu has a method of induction and integration inherited from the banished immortals, as well as the original "Five Thunder Tianxin Zhengfa" that has not been stripped of its cultivation methods. This is a gap in the skills.
Due to various factors, the difference in cultivation efficiency between the two is exaggerated. Zhang Yuelu's one year can equal Qi Xuansu's ten years. If Zhang Yuelu reaches the immeasurable stage in three months, Qi Xuansu will need at least three years, so Zhang Yuelu can
Taking the path of the inner alchemy sect, it is more reliable for Qi Xuansu to safely go to the outer alchemy sect.
Because of this, Zhang Yuelu wanted to consolidate his realm, but Qi Xuansu had no need to do so.
He went to the custody room. Ke Qingqing had already arrived. Following Qi Xuansu, he asked furtively: "Chief, do you know the inside story about what happened last night?"
Qi Xuansu asked, "What happened last night?"
"Of course it was an earthquake. The entire Jade Palace felt it yesterday. I also heard that a spiritual official came back in the middle of the night. Did something happen on the Five Elements Mountain?" Ke Qingqing was well-informed.
Qi Xuansu said: "What good will it do you to know too much?"
Ke Qingqing said: "I'm just curious."
Qi Xuansu said: "I would like to advise you, don't ask around, the real person in charge is not in a good mood."
Ke Qingqing blinked, as if he had some realization.
Qi Xuansu said again: "Even if you guess something, don't go out and talk nonsense, be careful of trouble coming from your mouth."
Ke Qingqing nodded quickly and said: "I understand."
Qi Xuansu came to the study and picked up the latest newspaper on the table - this was one of Ke Qingqing's errands, to prepare the day's newspaper for Qi Xuansu. Qi Xuansu would not say whether he wanted to read it or not, but
She had to prepare.
The first piece of news is naturally the alternation of the rotating Grand Immortal. From today until June 30th, the Earth Master will serve as the rotating Grand Immortal, which can also be called the acting headmaster. He will preside over Taoist affairs and exercise some of the Grandmaster's authority.
.
This is something that has been known for a long time, and there is nothing interesting to see. Moreover, the Heavenly Master and the Earth Master are allies, so there is no chance that anything will go wrong during the handover.
The second piece of news is the follow-up to the intervention of the Kingdom of Rune in the battle between the Kingdom of Netherlands and the Kingdom of Ibia. With Daomen's continued intervention and mediation, the situation in West Posas has stabilized and has not affected normal commerce. However, Daomen
This move is obviously only a temporary solution, far from a permanent solution. The conflicts between the three parties still exist. After accumulating to a certain extent, the conflicts will break out again.
The third piece of news is that the exchanges between Taoism and the Holy Court have been further deepened and steadily advanced. Recently, a cardinal of the Holy Court personally wrote a book called "Seven Grams", which talks about the teachings of the Holy Court. This book is not
No matter what, the whole article is written in oriental characters, not vernacular, but classical Chinese, and the level is quite high.
Di Bao also specially excerpted a paragraph: "When St. Francis entered Taoism, he asked the goddess to discuss the art of diligence. Suddenly I heard a voice saying: Francis. The joy of escaping from the world is like true suffering. The suffering of embracing the world is like true happiness. The saint has been like his life for many years.
After testing its benefits, he said: The goddess has given me a clear understanding of this principle. The evil spirits are living in the abundance of food and pleasure. Those who indulge in the pleasures of food and drink. The evil spirits ignore them. If they dare to attack, they will be victorious. There is a snake that eats cattle in the South China Sea Island.
. All beasts are afraid of it. It cannot be controlled. If you eat the cow alone, you will be full. You must not ride it. At this time, one person can cut it off. The monks are happy to die from this world. They choose to live in a miserable place. They eat and drink like medicine. They take special places.
It must be to protect one's health and to save the disease of hunger and thirst. The great treasure of evil feelings has been eliminated. The temptation of evil spirits must be hopeless. I am afraid that I will not win. How can I attack and consolidate its merits? Ancient sages have said: The mouth is the door of the heart.
.The evil demon uses gluttony to control the mouth. All evil emotions are brought into the heart. Therefore, the gluttonous person is a title given to the mouth by the evil demon. He can lead it as he desires."
This article is about the sin of gluttony among the seven deadly sins. If it weren't for the words "Saint Franchis" and "Goddess", it would be almost the same as the classics of the three religions. It would definitely surprise Qi Xuansu - he didn't even have such ancient texts.
level, but a cardinal far away in the West has such attainments. It can be seen that there are people in the Taoist sect who specialize in studying Western learning, and there are people in the Holy Court who study Eastern learning. It is precisely by knowing yourself and the enemy that you can win a hundred battles. The reason why the two families can maintain relative peace
, mostly because it was too far away. If it had been so close, I would have been beaten to a bloody head.
The fourth news is that there have been many pirates in Nanyang recently, which are suspected to be related to Fenglinzhou Japanese pirates, Nanyang, Lingnan and other local forces. The Taoist sect strictly ordered the Borneo Taoist Government and the Lingnan Taoist Government to cooperate to eliminate the pirates within a time limit and ensure navigation.
The road should be smooth and the priority should be to ensure trade exchanges.
The fifth news is that war broke out in Fenglin Prefecture. The reason was that the three Yu families, who had the inheritance rights of "Regent Guanbai", fought for the position of "Regent Guanbai". The Taoist sect had no intention of intervening in the internal fighting in Fenglin Prefecture. According to usual practice,
No matter who it is, the Taoist sect only supports the final winner. Whoever wins, the Taoist sect will crown him. The Taoist sect only wants Fenglinzhou, and it doesn’t matter who the person is loyal to.
It was just the stalemate between the three Yu families and the inaction of the Taoist clan that led to greater civil strife in Fenglin Prefecture. Daimyos from all over the country began to make plans to overthrow the regent Guan Bai and his family who were in charge of the imperial court in the name of returning power to the emperor.
What makes Taoists feel uneasy is that the simple "respecting the king" gradually evolved into "respecting the king and fighting the Tao".
The so-called "fighting the Tao" means excluding the Tao sect, so that Fenglinzhou can get rid of the Tao sect's control and achieve autonomy.
When Qi Xuansu saw this, his expression became solemn.
A hundred years ago, Daomen and Donghai troops advanced by sea and air, and came to the gate of Xiujing City, forcing the regent Guan Bai, who was in power, to surrender.
Regent Guan Bai showed a pragmatic attitude, but it aroused the dissatisfaction of many feudal lords and samurai. They thought it was a humiliating surrender, so they instigated Emperor Feng Linzhou to issue an edict through the ministers who had conflicts with Regent Guan Bai, and refused to sign the contract.
He advocated respecting the king and resisting Taoism. Regent Guan Bai ordered the arrest and killing of a large number of people who opposed and raised prisons. The opponents retaliated in kind and assassinated the then regent Guan Bai. However, with the strong support of the Taoist sect, the successor regent Guan Bai still
Opposition was suppressed.
Fifty years ago, the opposition once again instigated Emperor Feng Linzhou to issue an edict to abrogate the treaty, close the port, expel Taoist priests, and send people to burn Taoist temples, and shelled the ships of Daomen and Donghai Navy successively. So Daomen and Donghai Navy launched retaliation,
Daomen dispatched seven "Yinglong" warships and transported five thousand spiritual officials ashore, forcing the opposing local lords to surrender again.
After nearly ten years of war, the feudal lords from all over the country expressed their surrender to the regent Guan Bai. In the following decades, the opposition faction reconsidered their strategy and only denounced their opposition to the regent Guan Bai without mentioning "fighting the Tao", and the Taoist sect no longer
Intervene in the specific affairs of Fenglinzhou.
This time, the internal fighting among the regent Guan Bai's family caused the local feudal lords to make a comeback, and the trend of "respecting the king and fighting against the Tao" was on the rise again.
If we let it go, Fenglin Prefecture will be in chaos again.
Jinque formally proposed in the Di newspaper that he should ensure the peace and stability of Fenglinzhou and prevent local forces from taking the opportunity to cause chaos.
This means that the Taoist sect will once again intervene in the internal affairs of Fenglinzhou.
